@ezri @xyla @quinn @sammy mmm... based on the caffeine content alone, you'd be fine
like jittery, but fine, only 2.8g of caffeine in 19 473ml redbulls
you'd probably have to pee, really bad though...

@ezri competitive spooning

@ww oh! also emergency services, pretty sure they don't work quite right over voip and like, cell phones have to do some pretty clever stuff to get it working right

@ww yeaah, that's rural united states infrastructure for you... old, crufty, never really updated
a lot of places are seeing a jump straight from dsl to fibre, coax cable just never really got laid for much of this country... :neocat_woozy:

@ww joking: dialup (maybe not joking? dialup is cool)
but like... are there even isps that you can dial into anymore...? i think all of them that offer landlines also offer dsl these days

perhaps it's because of dsl that they still exist, like, all the hardware's already there, why not use it :3

@crmsnbleyd gitpost.trade/tidest
haven't actually got anything mirrored there yet, lots of repo creation and like reconfiguration to do... basically just a test repo right this second

you can totally have an account there if you like
can't guarantee any uptime or anything, but i'll give it my best effort ^^

edit: all the repos i currently care about are mirrored
surprisingly less effort than i really thought it'd be :neocat_thumbsup:
maybe if i want to work on some old projects later i'll have to drag them in...

stack overflow for once being very useful!
don't forget to logout of github cli when you're done gh auth logout
possibly uninstall it too, who needs it anymore :3

now just a few adjustments to some hooks and all's good to go

...github is really gonna make me archive everything one by one.. :neocat_glare:
deleting my account there would be so much easier...

anybody got a tool to like, api archive all your repos on that site? i'm (finally) moving house to my own forgejo instance...

@Paradox you've got the annual coke santa and polar bear that pop out (not sure that they still do?)
as well, there's the hawaiian punch surfer(?), smug little bastard

but yeah, not many soda mascots out there...

@aperture gahh, such a gigantic mood this one is

glad to know that the achey-ness of them doesn't really stop though

ai discourse

@Paradox you make a good point, at the end of the day, it is a tool... one i don't think should be used for serious things... bit like a leatherman or swiss army knife

i think for a lot of folks (myself included) however, it's how the tool was made... the creators of these models, unfortunately, took massive amounts of art, text, and so much else without permission..
and like, some will say that the individual works got compressed away, but, really, they didn't... there was a video i watched some time ago where they got the model to pop out the butterfly meme for example, it was mangled, yes, but still very recognizable

that, i suppose is my biggest sticking point with it at least, just the sheer disrespect for artists, then the folks that continue that cycle of disrespect, selling aigen works on patreon and the like
and like, i, as an artist, am actually perfectly fine with my works going into those models (barring those being used commercially), i'd like to be told if they did, but can understand if they don't...

there are, of course, plenty of other ethical and economic considerations...
i just wish that the research was more focused towards making models that don't rely on stolen works to function and could be more easily run on local hardware instead of gigantic server farms...
there is a better way to make these things.. and the ones perpetuating them, they just aren't, instead looking for the easy short term gains...

i would love a stablediffusion-esque model that was built from works sourced with permission... image generation is a heckuva lot of fun, but... i also don't want to disrespect my fellow artists.

@thermia CARGO_MOMMYS_LITTLE=girl/boy/pet in my case...
probably due for some updating, but i don't see the output super often lately... haven't been doing near enough programming... :neocat_woozy:
